Elephant by The White Stripes

White stripes are so underrated. Awesome album throwback to the 60s and 70s with a modern twist.

Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Jan 19 2026

Jazz not my genre, recognised a few movie scores. Easi listening but won’t be on my rotation

Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath
Jan 20 2026

A real blast from the past for this one, brings back memories of parties in dark and dingy houses with the sweet smell of marijuana heavy in the air and couples making out to Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin. I do find Black Sabbath music to sound the same, but it was refreshing to listen to some of their softer tracks such as changes. I definitely did enjoy it, Black Sabbath were Pioneers and their music shocked our parents who were more used to the Beatles and Rolling Stones.

Jan 21 2026

This album highlights how talented west is. I don’t often listen to Kanye, probably he’s more known songs but there is some gems in this.

War by U2
Jan 22 2026

Bono is an acquired taste, some people never acquire it. I’m in the later group. While their music is ok it baffles me how they got so big,

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Jan 27 2026

This album wasn’t for me.

Djam Leelii by Baaba Maal
Jan 28 2026

Did not enjoy this

Blackstar by David Bowie
Jan 29 2026

Bowie has always been weird, this is one of his weirdest albums yet. In a good way.

You're Living All Over Me by Dinosaur Jr.
Jan 30 2026

This album really hit the flavour of the 80s. Not the music I listen to back then but the sound is familiar.

Elvis Presley by Elvis Presley
Feb 03 2026

Toe tapping hip thrusting, there is a reason Elvis is called the King. My music taste are much more contemporary, but I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this album.

Diamond Life by Sade
Feb 05 2026

One of the best albums ever made. I listened to this one in the 80s until the cassette wore out.Sade has a voice like it’s floating in the clouds

Chirping Crickets by Buddy Holly & The Crickets
Feb 06 2026

What an album! Buddy were certainly taken too soon and this album is test amount to the talent of this man and his backing vocals band the crickets. Love listening to it love singing along with it.

The Number Of The Beast by Iron Maiden
Feb 09 2026

This is not the sort of album you listen to at 6 am in the morning, unless your 6 am is a continuation of the night before. One thing I like about this album is that The Voice of Iron Maiden is very easy to hear and understand, you can hear every word unlike a lot of other heavy metal bands.

I'm Your Man by Leonard Cohen
Feb 12 2026

Smooooth as silk

Murmur by R.E.M.
Feb 16 2026

Ahead of its time

Meat Is Murder by The Smiths
Feb 19 2026

Thoroughly enjoyed though the Smith’s music can sound a little bit the same sometimes

Paranoid by Black Sabbath
Feb 20 2026

Landmark album.

Van Halen by Van Halen

Too heavy and 80’s

Play by Moby
Mar 16 2026

Some excellent tunes others average. Mixed

...And Justice For All by Metallica
Mar 17 2026

All tracks sound the same , hasn’t passed the test of time

Back to Basics by Christina Aguilera
Mar 18 2026

Not sure what this album made up its mind to be whether it was disco jazz big band or Cabaret it had a bit of everything, but not everything but I liked what was good was very good

Elephant by The White Stripes
Mar 24 2026

White stripes are so underrated. Awesome album throwback to the 60s and 70s with a modern twist.

Tigermilk by Belle & Sebastian
Mar 26 2026

Very folksy

Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Mar 30 2026

Loved a bit of reggae

Transformer by Lou Reed
Mar 31 2026

Going to be hard to top this album, this was awesome

On The Beach by Neil Young
Apr 01 2026

An album to kick back with

Hot Rats by Frank Zappa
Apr 14 2026

This album should’ve stayed in the 60s

Music From Big Pink by The Band
Apr 23 2026

If you were around in the late60s, this music was the music that defined that era. The 60s had its own special sound.

Highway 61 Revisited by Bob Dylan
Apr 29 2026

Dylan can barely sing, the harmonica isn’t a musical instrument and his guitar skills are average. Yet his music somehow comes together so well and is so powerful
